THE CzAR'S ESCAPE.
How Russia's Ruler Was Saved
From Assassination.

How Russia's Ruler Was Saved
From Assassination.
1t is now learned, says special Berlin dis
patch to the New York World, that the Car
and Czarine would probably have been assas-
s;nated upon the 18th of last March if it hal
not been for two anonymous dispatches OF
warning from London. These dispatches
we're in exactly the same words and were in
o cipher, the key to which is only Enown to
the highest officials of the Russian police.
The messages asserted that the Emper0rs
life would be attempted on his way to the
requiem service in memory Of his father: In
spite of this warning both the Car and Gar
ina attended the service, driving to the church
in closed carriages. The police arrested the
conspirators and carried them off with
out any resistance. So quietly was this done
that not over twenty people in the street
noticed the arrest. The Czar returned to the
palace by another route, and when ne reached
home he gave way to fit Of terrific rage.
during which not even the Empress or any OF
his children dared to approach him. Soon
after the conspirators were arrested, the
whole court, strongly guarded, set out for
Gatchina. On the way thither he had another
proyidential escape, as obStructions OF iron
and wood had been placed upon the rails.
The train was nearly wrecked, but II
providentially remained on the track.
The mon arrested ultimately CON
fessed where the factory in which ths
explosives had been manufactured was loca-
ted. The police surprised the inmates by
means Of a stratagcm. On arriving outside
the suspected house sleigh was, in accor-
dance with prearranged plan. upset and one
of the shafts thereof apparently broken,
which necesSitate1 the occupants inuocently
requesting some Of tho inhabitants of the
house in question to allow the sleigh to be
drawn into the courtyard in order to be
repaired This having been granted without
suspicion, two more sleig CHS drove up:
apparently containing companions OF
thos, in the first one. Hardly had they
done so before some of them made
rush for the doors of the building and easily
succeeded in occupying all the apartments,
while the rest surrounded the house. The in

whom were two women. being. taken coI-

was frustrated by one of the officers tripping
the conspirator The book was all lnlernal
machine. While the prisoners were peiilg
conveyed to the fortress of st. Peter
and st. Paul one of the officers
inquired what had induced them to engage
in such crime, to which the reply was: Pow
erty. They asserted that they had been Sc
duced by large sums of money, part Of which
was found in their possession The fact OF
these prisoners being i'll possession OF SO m,lcn
money and the large quantity of explosives
found tend to show that more than the mere
Killing of the Car must have been intended.

THIRTY.fHREE LIVES LOST.
A Trading Schooner Wrecked
off the Coast Of Oregon.
Twenty-Eight Indians and Five
White Men Drowned.

A special from Victoria, British COiuni t,ia,
gives an account of terrible shipwreck, ac-
companici by the loss of thirty-thrce lives,
which has occurred off tho coast of Oregon,
about thirty miles north of Cape Flattery
Information was first brought in by four
Kyuginot Indians, who arrived at Vic
toria, having occupied ten days
in making the overland Journey from
the scene of the wreck. For some time
past great anxiety had been felt regarding
the schooner Active, having on board fve
Swedes and twenty light Clayaquete Indians,
and which was long overdue. The schooner
was owned by Guttman & Co., OF Victoria,
and was registered at 42O tons
The Active was engaged in general coast
trade and had a valuable cargo of assorted
merchandise on board, which. however. was
not insured. The schooner appears to have
been dashed on the shore. where she speedily
went to pieces. and ali hands undoubtedly
perished As far as known, no one wit
messed the disaster. the Indians having
their attention first attracted by the
large quantity of wreckage washed
ashore. Bunks. Indian mats, bedding,
etc, were all washed up, but nothing actually
bearing the name of the vessel. The general
description, however, with the nature of the
articles reported to have been recovered,
leave no doubt that the vessel was the Active.
Among those who have perished are Mr..
Jake Guttman, one of the owners; Captain
Gotscbamel, Affa jacobson, Charles Freder-
ick, and Billy Lessong, besides the twenty
eight Indians The latter belong to Chief Kill
sormat's tribe Chief kilsornat himself was
on board, the other Indians being hunters.
The death of the chief is tantamount to the
determination of the tribe, and Kllsolmats
tribe will soon be extinct. According to
custom of this tribe all the huts OF the unfor-
trnate man have been burned.

The unfailing and never misleading
barometer of commercial prosperity is
the iron trade, and particularly that all
important feature of it, steel rails. A
.urvcy of the whole area of production
reveals a condition of activity which is
actually unprecedented. A careful in
suiry shows that for the current year a.
547 miles of new railroad track are pro-
iected, of which the laying of over
Is, 900 miles is assured. Of old track,
no less than $4,000 miles will be relaid.
This gigantic construction will require
$3.50, 600 tons of steel rails, and it is
easy to infer from these facts what, for
The ensuing twelve months, will be tl,e
general condition, North and South, OF
the isae trade.
